I like how the beer bottle is positioned in that picture, very nice composition.

You think or you know? Industry massively produces only "standard size" LCDs, custom ones are very, Very, VERY pricey.

i didn't say that it would be cheaper, but with a higher resolution...
but at this key size maybe a standard 15" display would fit good enough...

Displays?

not knowing the size of these keys, but some 10", 15" or maybe 17" LCDs might fit nicely for this setup. Having a whole OS Desktop on each key would be nice :P

Gee, I like the idea of a massive room-size Optimus for promotional purposes!

Imagine a giant keyboard like this, with the different screens under each key, for a promotional idea. Wow!

Yes! It could be like the "Jump to Conclusions" mat in Office Space!

...Except we could introduce an element of chaos by changing the conclusions whilst you are in the middle of jumping :)

170 dollars per LCD * 113 LCD = 19210 dollars < 13 optimus keyboards
